        clicks tongue Sadly Odysee left a bad taste in our mouth. It became the home to fascists and other people who think no censorship meant “saying whatever bad shit we like.” So interesting to know but we think we’ll pass.

        Edit: Plus it used a block chain… so doubly bad. We are completely uninterested in ‘web 3.0’.

        Edit 2: Oh their wikipedia article even says “freedom of speech” was one of their goals. Yeah, definite red flag.

          Sounds like forking it to change the ideology is quite doable. Replace the audience and the creators but take inspiration from successful tech. The monetization friendly core of Odysee makes it distinct from apps like Lemmy and Matrix which are kind of $free by design.

          Re: “freedom of speech”, is the red part of the flag = the idea that they chose speech instead of expression? Like “freedom of expression” is what keeps our community weird and cool. “Freedom of speech” is a major component of that, but I’ve also heard the term used to defend hate speech.

          • Yeah, we’ve not seen anybody recently* use freedom of speech to mean anything but hate speech, sadly.

            *Within at least 5 years.

            Yeah, forking it might work. We do wonder if things built around payment are inherently better or not, might give the wrong incentives. Either way, we hope that it gets tied into the fediverse and not as something separate to that.

    Onlyfans announced it’d ban sex

    Excuse me, what? It’s tumblr all over again. Unless they’re ducking hardcore to woo advertisers or something.
